    Video: Cotto Confident in Avenging His Loss to Pacquiao, Stays with Top Rank

    JR Middleweight Champion of the World Boxing Association (WBA), the Caguas native, Miguel Cotto, today expressed no doubt in defeating Manny Pacquiao in a second fight if given the chance.



    Cotto comes from defeating Mexico's Antonio Margarito last Saturday via TKO10, who gave him his first professional loss in 2008.

    "I have no doubt about it (I can defeat Pacquiao). I understand that yes, I understand that with courage, with the quimic that is now in the group, we have no doubt about that, "Cotto said in an interview with Primera Hora in the home municipality of Caguas.

    Pacquiao is the current welterweight champion and beat Cotto in 2009 via knockout in the twelfth round. So, Cotto is waiting for the circumstances for a possible rematch with the Filipino, considered the best pound for pound boxer in the world.

    "Everything falls over time. This opportunity (against Margarito) I was given to me three years later. I'm not saying I'll be here three years later from now, but if it provide to me ill fight him, everything is possible, "said Cotto.

        I could always see Cotto beating Margo.

        After the Pac fight I can't see a way Cotto beats Pac.

          Apparently his guarantee per fight will be like 7mills per fight and he has been offered a Pacquiao Rematch at 15mills guranteed + PPVs and revenues. Also the contract that they are talking about is a 3 fight contract, instead of the 3 or 3 years he regularly signs!!

            He might as well. Not that I see much changing but what are his other options?

                  Is that right?? Was that in the video, because I didn't watch it.

                    Exactly. After the 1st Marg fight I could see tactical corrections that could effect the outcome.

                    After the Pacquiao fight, while I think he could definitely do way better with a better gameplan, I still just don't think he has the physical tools to beat Manny. Just a bad style match up for him.
